Forbes : Is Traditional Advertising Dead?
Medium: The Death of Advertising
Traditional media advertising
Traditional media refers to mediums that are part of our culture for over half a century. These forms include television, radio, print advertisements, and billboards. The most expensive form of marketing – television ads – have the power to reach broad and targeted audiences, depending on the reach of the channels selected. Radio is another medium that can broadly target audiences. Print advertisements such as those in newspapers and magazines, and billboard ads continue to be used to attract large groups of people at once.
Before 2000, Many people still watched TV. Hence, commercial ad reached to consumer. It was possible to targetting as well. It depends on TV show.
However, the fee was quite high. Commonly, TV media is over $100k excluded the fee of making a commercial. Company which afford commercial were mid – big company only.
Digital media advertising
Internet digital media, such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and so on, is running a business by advertising fee. Hence, digital media has a power once they earn a surtain amount of user.
The most benefit of Digital media refers to audio, video, and image content that has been encoded. Encoding content involves converting audio and video input into digital media formats. Typically, this includes social networking sites, website advertisements, blogs, vlogs, and podcasts. While blogs, vlogs and podcasts are relatively new to the field of media, social networking sites and internet ads have been dominating for several years.
Think about privacy policy
Social media doesn’t charge to use. Hence, the number of a global user is significantly increasing each quarter. They are gathering user data instead of fee. The data is used by advertisers. Who you are, where you are, what you tend to like. People can see the insight of Facebook users once they create business account. They cannot recognize individual.
In 2018, there was controversy about data privacy.
Facebook–Cambridge Analytica data scandal – Wikipedia
Since then, we can see the alert about data privacy when we access the website. It’s annoying as a user, but we have to care about it as web/graphic designers. I am working with a marketing company located in the United States. They mention about privacy policy page. I am sure that I can find a template on the internet, but I am not sure what the really correct is. So, I checked on YouTube.
Privacy Policy for Your Website or Online Businesses | How to Make a Privacy Policy
©All Up In Yo’ Business with Attorney Aiden Durham
– Website needs to have a privacy policy
– Google Analytics, Stripe, etc…
– California law is strict
– GDPR as well.
Specific components:
– Contact information, company name
– How do you collect the information?
– Reason why? For example, customer service, promotion, market research, etc.
– How we use it? For example, customer service, promotion, market research, marketing, share third party, etc.
– How opt-out of it? The user needs to opt-out easily.
– Keep transparency ✓✓✓
Almost, any topic we can find Video. I don’t think Google Analytics identifies the specific user thought. Is it wrong? I cannot choose a user who comes to the website. So, I have to meet California standards. (and GDPR?)

Termly.io shows the price. It’s the first step of trusty. I am not sure how Termly.io guarantees these documents legally. Does it work as same as a lawyer’s confirmation?

Conclusion: Keep safe
I don’t have a big client who is required responsible for data privacy. GDPR does not affect the north US, I thought. I don’t ask a lawyer to check the website or term. I am not keen on this kind of topic, but preparing the issue is better before I face the issue.
Anyway, I have to install a privacy policy and terms and conditions on the client’s website.
